The Pastoral Planning Process has been underway for just
over two months. Bishop Wester is seeking input from all
of the Catholics in Utah to help inform him in preparing the
Strategic Pastoral Plan for the Diocese of Salt Lake City.
Please take a moment and participate in the survey
process. The survey deadline is Jan. 31, 2015, and is
available at Prayerfulplanning.com.
The 2015 Diocesan Development Drive will start next
weekend, January 31 and February 1. The DDD is the one
Diocesan-wide appeal that provides support for ministries,
including seminarian and diaconate
formations, education – both in
Catholic schools and in Parish
Religious Education programs –
outreach to those in need, and our
youth.
All parishioners will be receiving a
letter from Bishop Wester with a
brochure inviting participation in this
year’s appeal. Once a year, each of
us is called to make a commitment
to support the work of our diocesan family, work beyond
the reach of any one parish. Our parish goal is 100%
participation. Please take some time to prayerfully discern
your gift to the 2015 Diocesan Development Drive. Your
generosity will allow our Catholic Community to continue
the many vital programs and services that touch the lives
of our brothers and sisters in Christ.
This month, CCS is participating in the national Souper
Bowl Day of Caring campaign on January 30th. The idea is
